One “did you know” very WTF on South Park, to stick to the series

sivertime — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 19:58:32 +0000

Created by two friends a little stamped, the series “South Park” has already marked history with its history. About which, there are plenty of stories.
And bim, put in abyme. #Keskiya, # boiling … #enflammade? Ok. Well, to come back to the fact, South Park has always been carbureted for years, and necessarily, there are things to tell. Aside from the fact that the two creators only complete each episode a few days before the broadcast, they are tearing it apart, as you do with your assignments, their adventures contain a lot of anecdotes and details. Fans is for you.
The creators do not remember certain episodes
At the time of season 3, the two companions, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, worked at the same time on the film that was going to go out to the cinema. As a result, their agenda was full, they never stopped working and writing. To the point of swinging episodes in the gas, to write to feel, limits in a second state . The episode where a panda is sexually harassed, among others. They have no memory of it. But according to their comments in their dvd, they find the idea funny anyway.
The screenwriters of “Game Of Thrones” were influenced by the parody of South Park
For Black Friday, they swung an episode in which they repeatedly tapped their characters in gardens. When David Benioff and DB Weiss saw this, they understood the message and calmed down on the scenes of that style , as they themselves confessed in the DVD of Season 4. Besides, in a scene , Olga Tyrell tells Margaery: “If I have yet another walk through the gardens, I throw myself off the cliff .” The power of South Park my guy.
George Clooney made the voice of a character
Go ahead, I’ll let you go. For fun. Frankly it’s impossible to know! Why ? For you can not recognize his voice . Chelou huh? It’s simple: Clooney interpreted Stan’s dog, in season 1. So he only barked. Here. Inevitably, it’s hot.
The association Gilles de La Tourette congratulated them
This episode is mythical. Cartman makes believe that he has Gilles de La Tourette’s syndrome in order to insult everyone tranquillou, normal, covered. And instead of being shocked, in automatic indignation as too often the association that deals with this disease in the United States explained to have adored the episode, that the creators had well transcribed the symptoms.
There are often hidden aliens in the background
Since the first episode where Cartman is removed and probed, the extratrestrats are present in the plot. There is even an episode where life on earth is presented as a vulgar reality television, organized by the aliens. And according to counts, you can see aliens encrusted in the background hundreds of times . In the crowd, in front of a tree …
Scientology has tried to intimidate creators
Some lack humor and retreat, can not laugh at themselves. A random example of the Church of Scientology. After the first (and not the last) episode in which Trey Parker and Matt Stone mocked them, the Church launched an investigation into them. Listening to communications, tracking bank statements, digging trash to find out about their diet and drinking … That’s it, anything. To find nothing in the end. And continue to get pruned. And bim, in the teeth. What anecdote makes you laugh the most?

The small details that kill on “Futurama”

sivertime — Wed, 01 Mar 2017 18:52:36 +0000

The series that mark an era and a public necessarily contain little secrets, details and other anecdotes. Examples with “Futurama”.
With Matt Groeaning and David X. Cohen in control, the success was predictable. When you created “The Simpsons”, you have a little talent. Broadcasted from 1999 in the States, and 2000 in France, the series lasted eight seasons . Either 124 episodes of 22 minutes. That is to say, a lot of material to find some stories to tell.
That almost called “Doomsville” or “Aloha Mars”
In order to stick a minimum to the subject and to the pitch, the creators wanted a name that had a relationship. Normal, there is a minimum. So at first they thought of “Doomsville” or “Alhoa Mars”. And finally they opted for “Futurama”, in reference to a 3,300m2 exhibition in New York in 1939 , in which people were supposed to see what life would look like twenty years later. I do not know the guys at the origin of this thing, if they were young, but at least they were ambitious. Sometimes vicious.
The sounds come from “Star Trek”
On first viewing, it’s hot to realize it. Then, by force, from episode to episode, you begin to ask yourself the question, to make the comparison . Not you ? Well, let’s admit, but some yes. They checked and realized that it was downright the same sounds for the automatic doors that close, the car, the lasers bright … As if by chance!
Languages created … to disturb you
If you are attentive, in the background, there are often things scribbled on pictures, posters, walls, trucks … And looking at it, it’s the same signs that come back. At first, it is simply the four letters DRINK. Ok. Then we see chelous symbols , each corresponding to a letter of the alphabet or a number corresponding to the place occupied in the alphabet, since there are 26. But then to know what to do with it, the doubt Remains. What if it was just a trap to make us think in a vacuum?
Owls are scrapings
Incredible but true, the owls have invaded the city. Usually it is the rats or the pigeons that we drink to come to attack us, but not there. They were replaced by owls. Everywhere, all the time. At first it’s just a joke . Then it becomes a running gag. Before finishing in serious stuff, where men make face-to-face with owls and capture them in bags to exterminate them.
Hermes was not to be a Jamaican, nor to be called Hermes
Yeah, that’s a lot. Basically, he was called Dexter, by the way. Will know why, the creators changed their mind during a recording , and then decided that it came from the country of Bob. As a result, they delayed the moment when they reveal its past to be well square, to build a little more seriously the character.
Howard Stern takes a tackle following a true story
Billy West is the American actor who makes Fry’s original voice, as well as those of Professor Farnsworth, Doctor Zoidberg and Zapp Brannigan. In short, during an episode, Fry yells at the top of his voice: “Howard Stern is overcharged!” Why ? Just because Billy West got confused with him and did not want to work with him anymore. So, he made your little kiff, his personal revenge.
Fry is a rebel without cause
Aber warum do you want to say. So here’s the explanation. You see Fry’s outfit? His red jacket, your white t-shirt, his blue jeans? No way, you say to yourself. And it is inspired by that of James Dean, in the film … “Rebel without a cause”, which happens to be “La fureur de vivre” in VF. Tadam, mystery cleared up.

Making the voices in Disney is nevertheless the class

sivertime — Mon, 20 Feb 2017 18:39:18 +0000

Lindsay Lohan has applied to be the voice of the little mermaid, by passion and eventually by interest. For your voice can remain decades.
Attention, it’s work! It is not simply a question of pointing behind a microphone, reading its text in a hurry and booming, you can trace two hours later to take the aperitif. The intonations, the rhythm, the deep or perched voice … Everything must correspond to the character, give it life . What actress Lindsay Lohan wants requires talent and hard work. If ever his spontaneous application (on social networks) is retained to play Ariel, the little siren, she can draw inspiration from these actors, who are still associated with the personages incarnated.
Walt Disney = Mickey Mouse
What’s more logical than starting with the boss? For twenty years, the creator of Disney was also the voice of Mickey . You know, the high one. Afterwards, he no longer had the time, and his voice (of smoker) began to derail to really stick to the character.
——- 1 ——-
Adriana Caselotti = Snow White
An 18-year-old Italian girl, who had an extraordinary voice, worked by her father who wanted to make her an opera singer. Despite the fact that no one knew him, Walt Disney had not credited him with the credits of the movie “Snow White and the Dwarf Sets” so that nobody knew who was making the votes . Otherwise, it would break all the magic, according to him. After about ten years, he agreed to credit them and take the “risk”.
——- 2 ——-
Eleanor Audley = Cinderella’s mother-in-law and Maleficent
And yes, you also need bad guys. In this case, here are the bad guys. The actress was already known to the general public, thanks to her roles in TV series , before interpreting the mother-in-law in “Cinderella” or the evil jealous in “Sleeping Beauty”. Better (or worse, it is according to): it also served as physical model for the characters.
——- 3 ——-
Sterling Holloway = Winny the Pooh, Kaa, Mr Stork, the Cat
Additional motivation for Lindsay Lohan, if necessary. When you give satisfaction, the studio does not forget you. If he loves your voice, he will call again to you. Known to be the voice of Uncle Oscar in “The Adventures of Superman” on TV , Sterling Holloway then lent his stamp to Winny the Pooh, the Kaa Snake in “The Book of the Jungle”, Mr. Stork in ” Dumbo “or the Cheshire cat in” Alice in Wonderland “.
——- 4 ——-
Robin Williams = the genius
Released in 1992, Aladdin marked a historic moment in the animated films. This was the record of entries that year, in the United States , exceeding $ 200M in revenue, far ahead of “Mom I missed the plane” and “Batman Returns”. And obviously, Robin Williams’ voice sat perfectly on the playful, whimsical, quasi bi-polar character of genius. For a great result.
——- 5 ——-
Jeremy Irons = Scar
You still have it in mind, eh? The grave, deep, evil voice of Uncle Scar in The Lion King. That bastard! To believe he has the trick to make fripper and menace Jeremy Irons , since he also shone on the screen in the role of Simon Gruber in “A day in hell”.
——- 6 ——-
Jodi Benson = Barby and Ariel
Among the many incarnated voices for Disney, many remember her in Thumbelina Barby in “Toy Story”. But also and especially of Ariel, the little siren, in the film of 1989 . More than a voice, she is a talented actress also rewarded at the theater. Obviously, there are other voices that have marked us. What would you add?
